Self worth lies at the heart of all our lives. Our feelings, thoughts and behaviours all stem from how we feel about ourselves and our world.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Tim has a brilliant, compassionate and down to earth manner. He listens and questions and challenges when necessary. I’ve had a number of therapists over the years and Tim is definitely one of the best.

Being my first therapist ever, I have tried to go with the flow, and Tim’s wisdom has been a massive help with staying consistent and sober, he is helping with a range of issues I have held inside. Looking forward to calmer days. Thanks Tim

Tim has been brilliant. I was reluctant to start therapy but Tim put me at ease straight away and has had a positive impact on my life in a short time. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
